Elon Musk Unveils Grok 4
Digest more
Grok 4 is xAI’s most advanced model yet, but early praise is clashing with old scandals and fresh tests of its limits.
Days after Grok praises Hitler, Musk touts the chatbot as smarter than PhDs in 'every subject' and debuts the SuperHeavy Grok subscription.
Grok will be available in Tesla vehicles, the company’s CEO Elon Musk announced on his social media platform X on Thursday morning—hours after xAI launched Grok 4, the most recent version of the chatbot that sparked controversy earlier this week after posting in what it called “MechaHitler mode.”
Elon Musk said changes his xAI company made to Grok to be less politically correct had resulted in the chatbot being “too eager to please” and susceptible to being “manipulated.” That apparently led it to begin spewing out antisemitic and pro-Hitler comments on Musk’s X social platform Tuesday.
